Zuma? Really?

So the rumors were true. Gwen Stefani did indeed give birth today to a baby boy. Who was then given the name of Zuma Nesta Rock Rossdale. Yup, that's right. I said Zuma. Here's the story:

Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale welcomed their second little prince today, E! News has confirmed. Son Zuma Nesta Rock Rossdale was born Thursday at Los Angeles' Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, joining 2-year-old brother Kingston in the musically inclined couple's burgeoning brood. The family's newest addition arrived at 12:46 p.m., weighing 8.5 pounds. "Mother, baby and family are all happy and healthy," a rep for the couple said in a statement. (source)

Now, I was totally ok with Kingston as a name. Kingston sounds rather English and Gavin is rather English, so it works for me. But Zuma? Was she hooked on the game Zuma while pregnant? And the poor kid can't even go by his middle name either. He's got to choose between a brand of iced tea or a mineral composite. Do they hate this child? Or are they just messing with us by giving the press a fake name? I'm hoping for the later. Until I get a good explanation for this name, I'm not giving my approval on it. Because my opinion totally counts in the Stefani-Rossdale family. Really, it does.

The Rumors Continue

In Touch Weekly (who were the first to correctly report the birth of the Brangelina wonder twins last month) is reporting that Gwen Stafani has checked into Cedars-Sinai Medical Center to give birth to her latest child. Here's what they have to say:
It’s D-day — as in delivery day — for Gwen Stefani! The singer checked into Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles and is scheduled to give birth via C-section at 10 a.m. PT. This will be the second child for Gwen, 38, and her husband Gavin Rossdale — and it’s in the same hospital where she gave birth to son Kingston, 2. "Gwen's so excited to have this baby because she gained a lot of weight during this pregnancy," her pal reveals to In Touch. "She is ready to meet her new baby and get her body back." (source)
If its a C-section, then we should know in a matter of hours in Gwen is truly giving birth. And I say that its about time! It seems like she's been pregnant forever! I was assuming that she would pop around the same time that Angelina did, but I guess I was wrong. Just another baby to add to the ever expanding Hollywood Baby Boom (or Hbb as I like to call it). I hope Kingston's ready to be a big brother!

Rumors

Lots of rumors going on today about events that are or are not going to happen this weekend. Lets see which ones come true.

This one I believe could be true. Lots of different gossip websites are speculating that Ellen DeGeneres and Portia De Rossi are getting married this Saturday at their home. Here's what US Magazine had to say:
Ellen DeGeneres and Portia De Rossi, 35, will wed Saturday in California, Usmagazine.com has learned exclusively. The pair are planning a small, intimate ceremony with only a few close friends and family.
E Online has been staking out their house all day and has reported lots of flower deliveries and event planners are buzzing around:

E! News can confirm that Revelry Event Designers, the same company that jazzed up Joe and Tina Simpson's pad for Ashlee and Pete Wentz's big day, is sprucing up the couple's Beverly Hills estate. A truck from L.A. florist Mark's Garden made a delivery to the couple's home Friday morning. (Ellen, 50, and Portia, 35, plan to wed this weekend, reportedly on Saturday night.) Also spotted at Ellen's 8,500-square-foot mansion Friday: Ellen's mom, Betty, who was seen driving out of her daughter's driveway shortly before noon.

Well, it sounds like some kind of party is happening at the love birds nest, but it may not be a wedding. I was always under the impression that Ellen and Portia were planning on getting married on Ellen's show. Or maybe I was wrong and they were just planning on filming the ceremony to show on her show at a later date. At least this way they'll get a honeymoon. Though I'm pretty sure they just got back from Italy not that long ago. Ah, to be a jet setting celebrity. They get all the cool vacations. I think I might be going a little stir crazy today. Anyway, if this rumor is true, then congrats to the newlyweds in advance!

On to the next rumor. Both People and E! are both stalking Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale and swearing that their second little bundle of joy will be making its appearance some time this weekend. Neither had any credible info though, just speculation, so I'm less inclined to believe this one. Though Gwen is pretty preggo and she has been going to the doctor an awful lot lately. Well, we'll find out when we find out on this one I'm sure. I wouldn't put it past her to wait until Labor Day weekend when all of the media is on vacation in the Hamptons or wherever it is that they are when they're not reporting random gossip.

And finally, Lindsay Lohan is apparently converting to Judaism. E Online's got the scoop:

It's no shtick—Lindsay Lohan is converting to Judaism. And apparently, her family is taking the news very well. Lindsay told family and friends she decided to convert after learning about the Jewish religion from her girlfriend, Samantha Ronson. Sam's family is Jewish and is said to be supportive of Lindsay's move.

Of course, Lindsay's ever talkative father, Michael, has already given his opinion to the press, saying he doesn't think she'll stick with it. I guess she was one of the many that hopped on and off the Kabbalah bandwagon, but this time love is involved. That it, assuming that she and Samantha Ronson are actually a couple like everyone says they are. Personally, I don't really care what religion she is as long as she stays sober. Or at least off the drugs.
That's it for me today. Its Friday afternoon and I'm excited for the weekend. I don't have much planned, but I'm going to enjoy it I hope.
Later!
